Safety, trust & environment

I carefully follow all instructions given by pet parents. I keep dogs on the leash while out walking, and supervise playtime, whether inside or outside. For kitties, I am careful to make sure they don't get into anything they aren't supposed to!

Information Jennifer H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any medications or special dietary needs your dog has. If your dog has separation anxiety or any other anxiety-related concerns, please let me know what I can do to calm them and help them be comfortable. Finally, I'd love to know if your dog has any favorite toys or activities!

A typical day

I love playing with dogs of all sizes! We can run around the yard, play fetch, walk to a nearby park, or whatever they like best!

Pet care experience

I grew up with a pet dog, and I currently own a rather grumpy rescue cat named Spock! I have been pet-sitting for friends (and friends of friends) for nearly a decade. I can house-sit or drop-in, take care of feeding, play time, and give meds if needed.

Jennifer was so good with my dog and cat while I was out of town for three days. She went above and beyond when my air conditioning went out during a heat wave and helped me coordinate with my neighbor to make sure my pets were safe!

Threw something new at Jennifer this time - physical therapy. And she handled it like a pro!

Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with our senior, disabled pup. She didn't give up trying to win him over when he had some trouble adjusting to a new person in the house and had the situation turned around within a couple of hours. Our dog has trouble feeling his back legs because of a degenerative condition, but Jennifer followed our instructions perfectly, making sure he always had convenient access to food and water and walking him with extra back end support and a stroller. Our house was in perfect condition when we returned from a 5-day trip. We would happily book again!
